Lomatium pastorale: Comments
Comment:
ICNafp (2012; formerly ICBN) art. 23.5 states 'The specific epithet, when adjectival in form and not used as a noun, agrees grammatically with the generic name [...]. Epithets not conforming to this rule are to be corrected.' As Lomatium is neuter, the masculine/feminie spelling 'pastoralis' must be corrected to the neuter 'pastorale'
